Summary

Machine-generated summary

The procurement covers the supply of a compact DN1000 ultra-high vacuum gate valve prototype built according to specification QT-AA008712-1, including air-bake treatment and optional feasibility and cycle testing. Requirements include a 150 °C bake-out capability, a seat leak rate below 1x10⁻⁹ and a body leak rate below 5x10⁻¹⁰ mbar·l·s⁻¹, cleanliness standards, and integration together with a site acceptance test in the CERN pilot sector. The buyer, PSI, regularly purchases smaller UHV valves from VAT, among others for SLS 2.0. Under the draft SVAPET memorandum of understanding, VAT performs the conceptual design and manufacturing coordination, while PSI and CERN carry out validation and pilot integration.
